It was impressive TV documentory.
This russian girl was adopted to korea. She was raised in Kwangju city.
She's now korean high school student.
She traveled to west russia to see her real parents and sisters.

It made me think of korean adoptees living in Sweden. Many korean adoptees live in Sweden. I exchange emails with one of them.

Click this , u can see the TV documentory.



I really don't believe you're actually a Korean who types like this. However, this is one of the best imitations I've come across. You use a lot of the habits of Koreans writing English, and come off sounding very realistic. Kudos to you, sir.

The three things that sound out-of-character:
"was raised in"
"traveled to"
"It made me think of"

If you send me a confession PM, I will gladly delete this post and let you keep going.

The OP does seem Korean . Personally I found the video interesting(and cheesy) and goes a good way towards helping us all humanise each other right up until the chat with "beauties" part anyway ...

You don't start enough new threads.

Make a game of it: count how many you started today, and try to break that record tomorrow!

OP: I think you meant the young lady went to Russia to find her birth parents. Her real parents are the parents who adopted her. So says my dad, an adoptee himself.

In my family there were several adopted cousins. I don't think any distinction was made between the adoptees and the rest of the cousins..we were alll just cousins.

In Korea there seems to be a belief that you can't love an adopted child the way you can love a biological child. Actually, as the mother of two biological children and one adopted child, I know for a certainty that one can and does love them all.

It seems a shame that there is this feeling about adoption in Korea.

By the way, are you a recruiter from Jeju?
